The Hamilton Wetland Restoration Project involves converting 630 acres of the former Hamilton Army Airfield using dredged material from the Oakland Harbor Deepening Project. This project is expected to form both seasonal and tidal wetlands from beneficial dredge refuse. This project was recently the cover story for World Dredging Magazine (Volume 44, Nos. ½) as an innovative effort for management of such a large amount of sediment material. 

DMS assisted in the formulation and initiation of the Site Operations Plan and performed the water quality monitoring duties for the 'dredged materials off-loader' in San Pablo Bay as well as onsite at the Hamilton Airfield. DMS installed a remote monitoring platform in a settling basin onsite, and in San Pablo Bay on the Manson Superbooster to monitor water quality for the entire cycle through the Hamilton Airfield. The quality of water as it percolates through the site has been closely monitored and advised by DMS to maintain compliance regulations with the San Francisco Regional Water Quality Control Board, and to provide the most efficient program for maintaining the quality of water onsite.
